How To Iron Out The Wrinkles of Irony

Irony happens when what actually is, is the opposite of what it seems.  
Well, more irony than ironic.  But nice try.

Let's iron one out right now!  In conversation, for instance.  

Person A tries to seem knowledgable by using buzzwords, but they are actually revealing their lack of knowledge of the bigger picture to person B in the process.  People like Person A are motivated by other people believing they are smart, not by actually being smart.  So don't be fooled!

Also, Person A is a bad loser.  

Like when Person A is freaking out about a problem with their computer, and Person B fixes it, which angers Person A even more, then Person A insults Person B and storms off....   (because they're embarrassed that they didn't know something and they don't know how to deal).

huge ego + tiny self esteem = how I seem > how I am

Which is the opposite of inner peace.... wow.  Have you met yourself, A? 

Wouldn't actually being smart benefit you more than just faking it? 


To seem like you are what you're not
Is a highly illogical plot!
It's actually harder 
To act like you're smarter
And do so without getting caught!
